PNNL and collaborators developed new models—recently approved by the U.S. Western Electricity Coordinating Council (WECC)—to help utilities understand how new grid-forming inverter technology will enhance grid stability.
PNNL’s patented Shear Assisted Processing and Extrusion (ShAPE™) technique is an advanced manufacturing technology that enables better-performing materials and components while offering opportunities to reduce costs and energy consumption.
The next-generation ShAPE machine has arrived at PNNL, where it will help prove the mettle of the ShAPE extrusion technique. ShAPE 2 is designed to allow researchers to produce larger, more complex extrusions.
Understanding the risk of compound energy droughts—times when the sun doesn’t shine and the wind doesn’t blow—will help grid planners understand where energy storage is needed most.
Making it on CrystEngComm’s HOT list, the article, “Designing scintillating coordination polymers using a dual-ligand synthetic approach,” highlights research on existing materials that are non-traditional scintillators.
PNNL led one of five Pathway Summer School programs nationwide, with a specific focus on engaging students from Native American or Indigenous backgrounds.
Germany Harris, Dewayne Maye, Sarah Olocha, Shaniya Pettway, and Rayonna Redmon became the first interns of the Minority Serving Institution Partnership Program Partnership for Radiation Studies Consortium at PNNL.
The Department of Energy’s Vehicle Technologies Office recently issued two awards to researchers at PNNL for their contributions to areas that are crucial for the expansion of electric vehicles.
Katalenich was selected to attend the Grainger Foundation Frontiers of Engineering 2023 Symposium—an honor given to only 100 early-career engineers annually.
Physicist Emily Mace will share her science journey and an interactive presentation about her current research with middle school and high school students from across the country at the National Science Bowl.
